@OP, I honestly see it as a breath of fresh air. IT gives a little variety to how you quest and pick apart a pack, as opposed to that OTHER game where you mindlessly grind through mob after mob and occasionally have a pack to deal with. Now it is more about "OKay...3 ranged mobs, 1 elite melee mob and one standard melee mob. How do I want to pick this apart while maximizing my damage and minimizing my damage taken."
